Then-And-Now Gallery Of Interview With The Vampire'S Original Cast

It has been almost 30 years since Interview with the Vampire, a 1994 American gothic horror vampire film based on Anne Rice’s 1976 novel of the same name, was released. Directed by Neil Jordan and starring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, the film received positive reviews generally and was a commercial success. Furthermore, this flick was nominated for Oscar’s Best Art Direction and Best Original Score.

On June 24, 2021, AMC announced a television adaptation of Interview with the Vampire, giving a series order consisting of eight episodes. By telling stories about sexy, elegant, and superior vampires, the feature film remains a staple for the Halloween season. Nov. 11, 2022 marks 28 years since the cult classic hit theaters. In anticipation of the movie‘s anniversary, let’s see what the original cast looks like now!

#1. Brad Pitt – Louis

In the film, Pitt plays Louis, a bereaved plantation owner who is turned into a vampire by Lestat. Pitt has described the shoot as “miserable” and wanted to bail out. He is now an A-list superstar in Hollywood. On January 5, 2022, he signed a deal with Apple to create a racing film on Formula One, for which he will earn $30 million.

#2. Tom Cruise – Lestat

As Lestat de Lioncourt, a sadistic vampire, Cruise played the film’s main antagonist and the cast’s biggest name at the time. In 2022, Cruise reprised his role as Captain Pete “Maverick” Mitchell in Top Gun: Maverick, a film that he also executive produced.

#3. Kirsten Dunst – Claudia

At just 11 years old, she beat out Natalie Portman and Evan Rachel Wood for the role of Claudia, a dying orphan whom Lestat transforms into a vampire. For her gripping performance, Dunst was given her first Golden Globe nomination. In 2021, she appeared on Netflix’s The Power Of The Dog and received some big awards for her role.

#4. Christian Slater – Malloy

Four weeks before the shooting began, River Phoenix was set to play Malloy, a journalist who interviews Louis about his life story. When Phoenix died unexpectedly, Christian Slater replaced him and donated his salary to Phoenix’s favorite charities. He was awarded a Golden Globe in 2015 for playing the eponymous role in Mr. Robot, which he also produces. In addition, Slater has had an extensive voice-acting career.

#5. Antonio Banderas – Armand

Rounding out the supporting cast is Antonio Banderas as Armand, the ringleader of the Parisian vampire coven. In 2022, Banderas appeared as Santiago Moncada, the antagonist of the Uncharted film. In 2023, he is appearing in the upcoming fifth Indiana Jones film.

#6. Thandiwe Newton – Yvette

As Yvette – a house slave who is murdered by Lestat, her character appears in the film only briefly. Newton’s career took off four years later. In 2021, she appeared in the movie Reminiscence. In 2022, she played the lead role in Amazon’s All the Old Knives.

#7. Stephen Rea – Santiago

#8. Indra Ove

She portrayed a New Orleans prostitute who interacted with Lestat. In 2019, Ové appeared as a First Order officer in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. She also starred in five episodes of Netflix’s “Sex Education” in 2021.

#9. Domiziana Giordano – Madeleine

Parisian doll maker Madeline has one of the shortest appearances in the film, but one that is incredibly tragic. Giordano had several larger roles before the movie but has had few since. Instead, she focuses her talents behind the camera as a photographer, assistant director, and video artist.

#10. Andrew Tiernan – Paris Vamp
